  Hi corinnecantor,

  Which email address would you like to use for your corinnecantor account? Our forums software will redact that information from public view but I will be able to see it.

  Thanks!

  Hi there,

  That email address is connected to another WordPress.com account that was created in January 2016.

  You’ll first need to change the email for that account to something else before you’ll be able to use it on this account.

  Log out of this account and clear your browser cookies, then go to the WordPress.com login screen and type in that email. You’ll have the option to either request a login link, or enter your password, and you’ll also be able to request a password reset from there if you don’t remember that account’s password.
